Brand purpose: more than a marketing slogan

Brand purpose: more than a marketing slogan

A brand is much more than its logo; a brand is a promise and the way that promise is kept. Brand purpose: more than a marketing slogan is about the level at which, and how, that promise is built.

Why is brand important?

As competitors converge on product and price, the brand remains the real constant that determines why people choose you. Strong brands lower price elasticity; customers come back.

Strong brands also buy less media: people start searching for you.

Framing the topic right

Brand work starts with a strategy, not with aesthetic choices. "What do we promise to whom, why should we be believable, how do we stand apart?" are the first step.

Without the right answers even the most expensive design doesn't work; with clear answers even the simplest design is striking.

Visual and verbal language

Typography, color, photography style, motion: each one makes up the brand's voice. Chosen independently, they create inconsistency; chosen together, they create recognition.

A brand voice guide (tone of voice) makes sure everyone, from customer service to social media, uses the same language.

Consistency in execution

A brand is experienced at 50 touchpoints, and all 50 must speak in the same tone. The website and the invoice are parts of the same brand.

Even a small guide document brings solid discipline; a big brand system isn't required.
